Remake or adaptation?

Rating: 8/10 (18 October 2006)

I agree this movie has elements of the Matrix and especially of Logan's Run, but I vaguely recall a movie from the late 70s called The Clonus Horror or Factor. The only reason why I remember it is because the final scene shows a Lotus Europa. As a gear head, rare cars like that stand out. In Clonus, clones are harvested for their organs and two people find out the truth. I did a search of this movie, but descriptions were lacking.
In any event, The Island is a pretty good movie, with lots of SFX. Ewan McGregor is a very diverse actor. One can't help but wonder if he was thinking, "didn't I do this in Star Wars?" as he ran across catwalks. Scarlett Johansson is also a fine actress, not to mention so attractive, too! I loved her in Lost in Translation, a brilliant and under-appreciated movie, since not too many people are Japanese bi-lingual. I suppose one needs to be to "get it."
